Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport

Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport is about 16 km southeast of central Budapest. By taxi or car, the trip usually takes 25 to 35 minutes, and it can take longer during rush hour or after major events. The 100E express bus reaches Deák Ferenc tér in the heart of Pest in about 35 to 40 minutes.

The airport lies within the wider Budapest area, on its southeastern edge, about 16 km from the city center. It is linked to central Budapest by road and by public transport, including the 100E express bus and the 200E bus, which connects to metro line M3 and to Ferihegy railway station.

Passenger flights use Terminal 2, which has two buildings, 2A and 2B, joined by the SkyCourt hall. You can walk between them in a few minutes. The older Terminal 1 is no longer used for commercial passenger flights. Gates are divided between Schengen and non-Schengen areas, with passport control between them.

Wizz Air, Ryanair and easyJet check in at Terminal 2B, along with British Airways, Emirates and several other carriers. Full-service European airlines such as Lufthansa, KLM, Air France, Austrian and Turkish Airlines check in at Terminal 2A. Counter assignments can change, so confirm your building on the airport screens or with your airline.

Főtaxi is the official taxi partner at Budapest airport, with stands just outside the arrivals exits of Terminals 2A and 2B. Taxis run around the clock, and the ride to the city center usually takes 25 to 35 minutes. Ignore anyone who approaches you inside the terminal offering a ride, and use only the official stands.

Yes. The 100E express bus runs 24 hours from arrivals to Kálvin tér, Astoria and Deák Ferenc tér, taking about 35 to 40 minutes, and it needs its own ticket. Bus 200E runs to Kőbánya-Kispest for metro line M3, and also to Ferihegy railway station, where trains go to Nyugati station.

Yes. Both Uber and Bolt work at Budapest airport, and in Hungary both apps dispatch licensed taxis rather than private drivers. Uber has a marked pickup point at Terminal 2A, and larger XL vehicles are requested from Terminal 2B. The ride to the center takes about as long as a regular taxi, usually 25 to 35 minutes.

Hungary is part of the EU and the Schengen area. If you fly in from outside Schengen, you pass passport control on arrival. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation. Check visa requirements for your nationality before you travel.

There is no train station at the passenger terminal itself. Bus 200E links Terminal 2 with Ferihegy railway station, where trains run to Nyugati station in central Budapest in about 30 minutes. Because the trip needs a bus and a train, most travelers find the direct 100E bus simpler.

Lake Balaton lies southwest of Budapest, and most travelers reach it by car, private transfer, or by going into the city first and taking a train or long-distance bus. From the airport, a road trip avoids changes in central Budapest. Check timetables before you travel, as rail and bus connections leave from city stations rather than the airport.

Budapest is on Central European Time, UTC+1, and moves to summer time, UTC+2, from late March to late October. Hungary uses the Hungarian forint (HUF), not the euro, although cards are widely accepted. Summers are warm and winters are cold, so pack for the season.

Budapest Airport Ltd. runs the airport under a concession operated by Vinci Airports, with the Hungarian state as majority owner. The airport handled about 19.6 million passengers in 2025. Wizz Air has its headquarters and main hub here, and Ryanair keeps a base at the airport.
